Ponderings by Picasso

Now we're talking.

Finally, an event about cats and for cats.

The cats at Caroline's Kids Cat Sanctuary in Concord Township are throwing a birthday party from 1 to 3 p.m. Saturday on the sanctuary grounds at 7394 Morley Road.

Yes, cats are invited (and so is Fido, if he's on a leash and up to date on vaccines).

Cats have to be in a proper cat carrier.

Humans can come as they are.

Since it's a birthday party, if you'd like to bring a gift, the girl cats would like Petsmart gift cards, canned or dry cat food, scoopable litter, paper towels, laundry detergent, bleach or dish liquid.

The boy cats would like gift cards to Home Depot or Lowe’s for work around the sanctuary.

Cake and drinks will be served and tours will be given of their home.

If you can not attend but would like to make a donation, please send toCaroline’s Kids Cat Rescue, P.O.Box 24068, Mayfield Heights, OH 44124.

More than 200 cats, many with special needs, call Caroline's home.

Please stop by and make it a purrfect afternoon by bringing a donation.
